This milestone tracks the progression of OpenShell from Alpha to Beta and stabilization of core APIs. OpenShell Beta denotes the ability to deploy OpenShell with the following capabilities and tenants:

• Providers: the current Providers v2 will become the default provider system on OpenShell

• Extensibility: bring your own business logic and third party services that plug directly into OpenShell through our APIs. Govern policies and providers, parse and enforce custom network and application policies. Develop and deploy your own sandbox compute drivers, configure your own credential storage for agentic workloads.

• Multi-tenancy: offer primitives for grouping sandboxes together and specific OpenShell role types

• Scale and High Availability: Deploy OpenShell on Kubernetes with High Availability. Offer a few topology options depending on isolation requirements.

• Observability: Collect sandbox logs into centralized locations for storage and analysis.

• Policy Advising and Automation: Sandboxed workloads and agents may request policy changes with optional auto-approvals based on approved policy upper bounds and enterprise governance.
